Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

In order to discover our range of numbers, we will first add 0 to both numbers as follows:

0.66=0.660 0.66=0.660

0.67=0.670 0.67=0.670

This means our number will be in the range between 0.660 and 0.670.

The numbers that exist in this range are: 0.661 0.662 0.663 0.664 0.665 0.666 0.667 0.668, 0.669 0.661\text{ }0.662\text{ }0.663\text{ }0.664\text{ }0.665\text{ }0.666\text{ }0.667\text{ }0.668,\text{ }0.669 .

Now if we look at the possible answers and compare them to our number range, we can deduce that the answer is 0.665 as it appears in both.

Answer

0.665 0.665
